1 Beautiful说明
BeautifulSoup库是灵活又方便的网页解析库，处理高效，支持多种解析器。利用它不用编写正则表达式即可方便地实线网页信息的提取。
安装
pip3 install beautifulsoup4
解析库
| 解析器 | 使用方法 | 优势 | 劣势 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Python标准库 | BeautifulSoup(markup, “html.parser”) | Python的内置标准库、执行速度适中 、文档容错能力强 | Python 2.7.3 or 3.2.2)前的版本中文容错能力差 |
| lxml HTML 解析器 | BeautifulSoup(markup, “lxml”) | 速度快、文档容错能力强 | 需要安装C语言库 |
| lxml XML 解析器 | BeautifulSoup(markup, “xml”) | 速度快、唯一支持XML的解析器 | 需要安装C语言库 |
| html5lib | BeautifulSoup(markup, “html5lib”) | 最好的容错性、以浏览器的方式解析文档、生成HTML5格式的文档 | 速度慢、不依赖外部扩展 |

可根据标签名、属性、内容查找文档。
name
html = '''
<div class="panel">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h4>Hello</h4>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<ul class="list" id="list-1">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
<li class="element">Jay</li>
</ul>
<ul class="list list-small" id="list-2">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.find_all('ul')) # 查找所有ul标签下的内容
print(type(soup.find_all('ul')[0])) # 查看其类型
嵌套地查找标签下的子标签:
html = '''
<div class="panel">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h4>Hello</h4>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<ul class="list" id="list-1">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
<li class="element">Jay</li>
</ul>
<ul class="list list-small" id="list-2">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
for ul in soup.find_all('ul'):
print(ul.find_all('li'))
attrs
通过属性进行元素的查找：
html = '''
<div class="panel">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h4>Hello</h4>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<ul class="list" id="list-1" name="elements">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
<li class="element">Jay</li>
</ul>
<ul class="list list-small" id="list-2">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.find_all(attrs={'id': 'list-1'})) # 传入的是一个字典类型，也就是想要查找的属性
print(soup.find_all(attrs={'name': 'elements'}))
特殊类型的参数查找：
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.find_all(id='list-1'))#id是个特殊的属性，可以直接使用
print(soup.find_all(class_='element')) #class是关键字所以要用class_
text
根据文本内容来进行选择：
html = '''
<div class="panel">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h4>Hello</h4>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<ul class="list" id="list-1">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
<li class="element">Jay</li>
</ul>
<ul class="list list-small" id="list-2">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.find_all(text='Foo'))#查找文本为Foo的内容，但是返回的不是标签
text在做内容匹配的时候比较方便，但是在做内容查找的时候并不是太方便。
其他方式
find
find用法和findall一模一样，但是返回的是找到的第一个符合条件的内容输出。
find_parents()， find_parent()
find_parents()返回所有祖先节点，find_parent()返回直接父节点。
find_next_siblings() ,find_next_sibling()
1返回后面的所有兄弟节点，2返回后面的第一个兄弟节点
find_previous_siblings(),find_previous_sibling()
1返回前面所有兄弟节点…
find_all_next(),find_next()
1返回节点后所有符合条件的节点，2返回后面第一个符合条件的节点
find_all_previous()和find_previous()
同理。
5 CSS选择器
通过select()直接传入CSS选择器即可完成选择
html = '''
<div class="panel">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h4>Hello</h4>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<ul class="list" id="list-1">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
<li class="element">Jay</li>
</ul>
<ul class="list list-small" id="list-2">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.select('.panel .panel-heading')) # .代表class，中间需要空格来分隔
print(soup.select('ul li')) # 选择ul标签下面的li标签
print(soup.select('#list-2 .element')) # '#'代表id。这句的意思是查找id为"list-2"的标签下的，class=element的元素
print(type(soup.select('ul')[0])) # 打印节点类型
层层嵌套的选择：
html = '''
<div class="panel">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h4>Hello</h4>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<ul class="list" id="list-1">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
<li class="element">Jay</li>
</ul>
<ul class="list list-small" id="list-2">
<li class="element">Foo</li>
<li class="element">Bar</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
for ul in soup.select('ul'):
print(ul.select('li'))
获取属性

'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
for ul in soup.select('ul'):
print(ul['id']) # 用[ ]即可获取属性
print(ul.attrs['id']) # 另一种写法
获取内容
html = '''
<div class="panel">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h4>Hello</h4>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<ul class="list" id="list-1">

</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
for li in soup.select('li'):
print(li.get_text())
6 总结
- 推荐使用lxml解析库，必要时使用html.parser
- 标签选择筛选功能弱但是速度快
- 建议使用find()、find_all() 查询匹配单个结果或者多个结果
- 如果对CSS选择器熟悉建议使用select()
- 记住常用的获取属性和文本值的方法
